  • IPhone 5 Photo/video recovery

    Hey, so I have an iPhone 5 which i took some photos and video with which very precious to me. I accidentally deleted a video in particular. Keeping in mind that the video was deleted before any backup was made of it. I understand that it is technically still on the hard drive as digital 1's and 0's, but rendered unreckognizeable and made available to other things as the space is needed. I need a way to access the files before they're overwritten. Are their specific programs that authorized apple employees use to get into the software like this? I have tried iExplorer and it only shows what is currently on the iphone as reckognizeable. I really need help with this fast! Thanks so much in advance!

    With only a few easy steps, you can extract your images, videos, songs, text messages, contacts, notes and so on. all your lost or deleted personal data by using iPhone data recovery software on a computer.
    Step 1. Download the program and install it on the computer you synced your iOS devices before. Open the program to get started iPhone Data Recovery.
    Step 2. Highlight a device by clicking it and then click "Start Scan" to extract the content on the backup file.
    Step 3. Preview thumbnails of all found photos, files previously synced to iTunes from your iPhone, iPad and iPod.
    Step 4. Click on "Recover"to fully restore your files.

  • IPhone 4 in Recovery Mode--will I get my photos&videos back when I restore?

    Last night, after syncing my iPhone 4, I attempted to download and install the latest iPhone software. It downloaded (after 3 hours which was crazy especially since download and successful installation took less than an hour with my husband's iPhone 3GS) and started to install. However, the installation failed and now a popup says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used in iTunes." My phone shows an illustration indicating that I should plug it into iTunes.
    My number one concern is whether or not I will be able to recover my photos. I have many photos and videos of my 6-month-old daughter on my phone that I do not want to lose. I did attempt to start a restore but cancelled when it said that I would lose all of my media. It said I would have the option of restoring my contacts, calendars, text messages, and other settings. It doesn't say anything about my photos and videos. Will I be able to restore my photos and videos??
    Thank you!

    You will only get them back if you synced before you started the download/install, therefore creating a backup (or mirror image) of your phone. If you didn't, chances are photos/videos and anything else you may have downloaded will be gone.
    Make sure you always transfer ALL photos whenever you connect your phone, this way you know you still have them and can sync them back to your phone to enjoy wherever you are.

  • Unable to reinstall HP MediaSmart Photo/Video/Movie after System Recovery

    My NoteBook originally came w/ Vista Ultimate & HP gave me a a disk for upgrade to Windows 7.
    Doing another System Recovery and while upgrading to Windows 7 it was recomended I uninstall HP MediaSmart Photo/Video/Movie since it might not be compatible w/ W7, which I did. After recovery/upgrade I find out HP has me reinstalling the same version. However, it will not install. I get the following message:
    "Error applying transforms, Verify that the specified paths are valid. C:\HP\tmp\src\1033.mst"

    Hi,
    The download page for a lot of notebooks often has multiple entries for the same software - for both drivers and other software, just install the latest version.
    When you believe that you have installed all relevant software and drivers, you can always check by opening windows Control Panel and then opening Device Manager - look for any entry here that has a warning icon ( yellow triangle ) next to it.  If you find any, right click on the problem device and select Properties.  Click the Details tab, choose Hardware Ids from the dropdown box and post back with the details shown under Value.
    Best regards,
    DP-K

  • I accidently agreed to restored ipad but now I lost all the photos/videos, can I possible get it back?

    When I updating my iTune today, I got few other pop up notes asking if I want to sync my iPad and other notes seems restoring... so.. now I lost all my photos/videos that I had with my last trip with my parents to Yellow Stone/Grand Teton....  I am very nervous sitting here asking your help.  Please response if you know how.  Thank you.

    Hi there sorry to hear that, if you have previously backed up your iPad you can restore it to that backup, do you know if you have a previous backup? If you go to iTunes,edit then preferences then devices you will see you previous backups, your photos could be there if you backed up your photos previously though i hope this helps you.

  • HT1349 It is possible to recover photos/video sent to the trash can on the iphone 4S?

    I accidentally moved several photos/videos to the trash can on my phone.  I haven't deleted them permanently from the trash can (not even sure if this is an
    option, just used to this type of setting on my computer).  Once a photo has been moved to the trash can, is it recoverable or is it gone?  I can't find a way
    to get to the trash contents to see what is there and undelete.  I hope this is an option!  Thx.

    Only if you backed them up prior to trashing them.

  • Now that I have backed up, can I delete items from my desktop? One of the reasons I got the time capsule was so that I could free up some space on my computer. I am confused about whether the backup will one day remove my photos/video

    I purchased a 2TB time capsule yesterday. I set it up as a router and did the backup no problem. I then navigated the backup folder and found that all my photos/video that I am nervous about losing are on there. So far so good.
    Taking a step back, the reason I bought the time capsule was 1.) I needed a router 2.) I have a mac and 3.) I am running out of disk space on that mac (I shoot and cut a lot of video and have years of high quality pictures on my mac hard drive)
    Can I now delete them from my mac computer to free space? I have used standard external disk drives in the past, but the whole "Back Up" piece of things has me confused. I love the idea of backing up my computer so I want to keep that functionality, but will the drive still function as a static external hard drive? Or do I need to move that material in seperately as a folder outside of the backup folder?
    I am nervous that if the backup overwrites information as the disk space becomes limited that in 10 years when I fill this drive up, that I will lose all of my photos that are part of the backups that I am running now.....
    Or worse, I am nervous that if I remove things from my mac right now, that the next time that a back up is performed that it will lose this data as it is not currently on the device I am backing up? How does this work?
    I apologize, the back up is a very new concept to me and I want to make sure I do not goof anything up.

    That's an entirely different thing from backups.  A backup is an extra copy, in case the original is lost or damaged.   Additional space is just that -- more space for originals.
    While it's possible to use the same disk (such as the TC's internal HD) for both things, it's dangerous -- when (not if) something happens to the TC, you risk losing the originals that are on it.   To be safe, you need (at least) two copies of everything important, in (at least) two different places.  
    Many (including me) recommend at least three copies (originals plus 2 backups).  While it's not common for the Mac's hard drive to fail about the same time as the backup drive, it does happen.  There are several threads here where it did, and very expensive data recovery was needed, but in some cases everything was lost.
    So as the others recommend, getting an external HD for the stuff there isn't room for on your Mac is one solution for not having enough space.  But you might explore getting a larger internal HD.   If possible, that might be bettter.
    Then, also get another external, for "secondary" backups, so you're doubly protected.  If you get a portable model, you can take it offsite for even better protection.  See #27 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions for details and some suggestions.
    Can I now delete them from my mac computer to free space? I have used standard external disk drives in the past, but the whole "Back Up" piece of things has me confused.
    You're not the first or only one. 
    There are different types of backup apps, so there are different answers for the different types.
    As the others have posted, Time Machine will, sooner or later, delete it's backup copies of things that are no longer on your system.  Depending on how long the original was there and when backups were run, that can be in as little as 24 hours, or as long as there's room.   So no, don't take the chance with data that's important!
    Is there helpful information on how to add an external drive to your backup set up?
    See the green box in #2 of the FAQ article.  All you have to do is format it for a Mac and remove it from the exclusion list.
               Once I set it up, will I need to leave the hard drive plugged into my mac in order for the data to be backed up?
    It can only be backed-up while it's connected.
               If I do, and a back up is performed without the hard drive attached to my computer, will it remove the backup of  what was on the hard drive
    No (unless you leave it disconnected until Time Machine starts deleting old backups).
    It will back up the external when it's connected, and not complain if it isn't.

  • Restore to previous icloud settings and photos/video are gone. Still recognized 6 gigs of data but can't find them. please help me rescue my children's precious moments.  Thanks in advance

    Alright people i have a problem and looking for help. Yesterday the iphone started acting funny, a couple apps started crashing and the Iphone reboot a few times on it's own. Things seemed to be back to normal and I notice a "system update" that needed to be install. I thought this update may help the earlier crashing issue. During install, the Iphone froze up and I had to wipe it to factory settings.
    Now I have not backed up the phone on the computer/itunes, because I bought extra storage in ICloud. I reset my phone to the last Icloud setting and rescued my contacts, but not the apps or PHOTO/VIDEOS. I was expecting to have the phone to return back to my previous working phone, but now I have to reinstall the apps. Reinstalling the apps is no big deal, but now I only have 6 pictures and NO videos. The icloud settings tells me I have multiple gigs of data used, but where are the photos and videos?
    I should add that I lost all my previous text history, which I wish to get back too if possible...
    To save some conversation, I researched and didn't find much answers, but found most people were double backing up the photos with Dropbox, Google+, and/or Flickr. I have set up accounts at all three to prevent further issues, but this won't replace the last 6 months of photos that I can not seem to find or reinstate back onto Iphone.
    Android uses an external memory card to prevent this type of data loss. #apple#iphone #icloud
    I should add the wife and I have two accounts: I have an Iphone 5s and she has her own account with an Iphone 5s and Ipad.  We also have a computer running windows vista.
    Thanks in advance for any help...

    Did you ever restore your last iCloud backup?  That contains you camera roll photos & videos, text messages, app data, settings, etc.  It will also redownload your apps and other purchased media.
    If you didn't, follow the steps in this article to restore the backup: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.

  • IPhone photo/video library glitch - wrong file extensions, name shift, lost files etc [LONG story - sorry]

    I have a 5s running 7.0.4. and my computer is running Windows 8.1.
    We had a baby and my phone filled up fast with pictures and videos, so I decided to offload them onto my PC. I connected my phone to the usb port, and directly copied from the DCIM folder to my hard drive.
    Something happened during the first attempt, and the process was interrupted. So I went into each of the sub folders, and selected all files, and started the copy process again. I told the computer to skip any existing files.
    So all the file counts matched in each folder, and I figured it was safe to start deleting from my iPhone.
    On my hard drive, I separated all the MOV files into my Videos folder. But in Windows Explorer, the thumbnail view showed several MOV files with no thumbnail - just the generic icon.
    As I sorted my photos into various folders, I also noticed a lot of generic icons instead of thumbnails for the JPGs. I started to feel concerned that my files had become corrupt during the transfer. But then I noticed a PNG file that was a few hundred megabytes. This was odd, so I added the MOV extension to it. Sure enough, it was a video with the wrong extension.
    I renamed every PNG and JPG file that had no thumbnail to add the MOV extension. Every one was a video with the wrong file extension.
    Then I went to the video folder, and all the MOV files that had the generic icon were actually JPG files.
    Well I was just happy to see that the files were not corrupt.
    One more time before I deleted things from my iPhone, I did a spot check to see that the largest videos were on my hard drive. I found a few videos that were not copied over, despite the file counts having been accurate. So I copied the videos again, and compared file sizes and date/times when there was an overwrite prompt. Most were matches, but several were the same file name with different sizes and dates.
    I didn't know what was going on, but I just wanted to get the files on my computer. So I renamed my local copy where there was a name collision, and copied the videos. I deleted the videos from my phone as I went along.
    I felt pretty confident that I had all the files copied now, so I began mass deleting my photos.
    I went to the Photos app on the phone, and watched the thousands of pictures disappear, and the glorious free space grow on my phone.
    But wait... there was still 1 video in the Photos app. I thought I had gotten all the MOV files off the phone...
    I have a photo info app installed, so I was able to see the file name of the video. I searched for that file name in the DCIM subfolders, but the folder that had that series of files (the IMG_3000-3999 files) listed the files with that particular video skipped. It was clearly still on my phone, because I could play it.
    Then I noticed it was a 45 minute long video of my baby. About 5 GB. So I figured it must be due to the file size that it wasn't visible from explorer. (Can't explain why that would be, but M$ keeps changing crap too. I never freaking know what to expect from them either.)
    After having deleted all the jpg, png and mov files from the DCIM folder, there were still about 26 files in my camera roll on the iPhone. And I could still view the video.
    I decided I wasn't concerned about the photos, I just wanted to figure out how to get the video onto my computer.
    So I selected all the photos in the photo app (skipping the 1 remaining video) and tapped the trash can.
    Poof! One item remained, and it was one of the garbage photos. My video is GONE! ^#@*&#($^@Q&%( And no, I didn't fat-finger it. I was very careful to select the correct thumbnails.
    Looking back, I know that I should have just started the entire file copy process from scratch when funny stuff started happening like mismatched file names. But I am a sleep-deprived new mom and just wasn't thinking clearly. It would be nice if I could have used my file/directory compare program to check the iPhone against my laptop, but it is not compatible with devices, only removable drives.
    And no, I don't use iTunes. I stopped using iTunes years ago when it would randomly decide to delete contacts from my phone just because they didn't exist on my computer or some sh-- like that. I have always just manually synced all my stuff and have never had an issue like this. To say I am sad to lose that video is an understatement.
    I googled "iPhone undelete" and "iPhone data recovery" and downloaded a trial for one of the likely candidates. It turned up a bunch of garbage, but not my video.
    Anyways... I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this type of scenario? Has anybody identified what could cause this to happen? I would like to avoid this in the future. (I will avoid this type of loss, because I know now what I could have done differently to be more careful. But it would be nice if I didn't have to get all neurotic about checking 60GB of photos/videos side by side each time I copy them to my computer...)
    I have seen other threads on the forum here regarding corrupted libraries and such, but I am not sure this is the same thing.
    One suspicion I have is that it might have to do with the iPhoto app being installed on the phone. I can't articulate why I think that is worth considering. But when I looked at my Video folder, I ended up with many duplicate videos, and all the duplicated videos' file names were 2 numbers apart. As if all the file names got shifted at some point. Very strange.
    Thanks for listening to my rant. If anybody has an idea, I am interested. If anybody else has lost precious memories due to this, we should talk. If it is a widespread problem, maybe we can all get together and pound down Apple's door?
    As an aside: Why am I unable to select Apple Support Community to post this question to?

    In my case number of weird things happen whenever I try to copy pictures/videos from my iPhone from direct USB...
    1. JPG files are wrongly named as MOV and vice versa.
    2. I copy only folders but in addition files with no extension are copied in the main folder, very strange.
    3. Whenever I open one of the folders, strange icons like this () start appearing which cannot be copied even.
    Unfortunately I used to delete a lot of files with wrong extensions in the past because I never new they could be fixed.
    Apple should answer this!
    Note: I am using Windows 8.1 and use a direct USB cable without iTunes to copy the media files directly from My Computer.

  • Something went wrong with iPad photo/Video import and now iPhoto on Mac does not see content.

    I just connected my iPad (4.3.2) to my mac (10.5). It launched the synch process for photos and videos and everything went fine. I then clicked on one of the newly imported photos in iPhoto and it choked and ultimately closed the app and gave me message along the lines of "iPhoto quit Unexpectedly." I rebooted the machine and when it came up went to look in iPhoto and saw that the new photos/video were not there. They are still on the iPad (Fortunately!) However when I reconnect the iPad to the Mac it does not see any content to import. In essence it seems to think it did the import and is not aware that it lost the content.
    There's a couple possible solutions I'm interested in. One, are the photos/video somewhere on the Mac and just need to be dug up? I nosed around a bit but found nothing. Then other solution would be is there some way to force iPhoto to reimport what's on the iPad, ignoring that it feels it's already done this?
    Thanks,
    Wil

    Where did these photos come from to begin with? Did you import them from the iPad into iPhoto on your Mac? Is that what you are saying here?

  • App or Function to display size of grouped multiple photos / videos?

    Hi to all the community!
    Have searched a few forums for answer to this as well as experimenting with various apps but cannot fulfill what i thought would be a simple requirement...
    All i want to acheive is to see the combined file size (aka 'space taken up in MB or GB') of a group of photos / videos stored locally to my iPad. I have no acces to my home desktop or laptop with itunes on it as i am travelling the globe, so i'm looking for a solution that is done entirely on the iPad with either an app i have yet to discover or a work around using the iPads functions.
    Would be great if when you created a photo album in the photo app it could display the size in mb of your collected images and videos, but alas this is not possible. My photos and vids have pretty much all been imported via the camera connection kit (so not taken usign the ipads camera).
    Also i am not currently running iOS 6 so apologies if this functionality has been added in the update... I am lookign for an iOS 5 solution.
    Prepared to face the fact that its simply not possible but since photoshack pro (which i tend to use in place of the slghtly cumbursome 'photos' file system) can show at least the size of individual files, seemingly not folders/albums though, that it must possible?
    Yours hopefully!

        Interesting Usafvmi08! I completely understand your concern and would want my pictures/ media saved as well. Let's figure this out.
    First, the good thing is everything is backed up since you can access it all via your PC or iPad. Please try removing the app from your device, restart phone, then re-download and try again. Let's see if this makes your current media available.
    Please keep us posted.
    Thank you,

  • Album photo/video widget not supported by Other launchers?

    Hi,
    I seemed to notice that the album photo/video widget is not supported by other launchers(e.g. I use Nova Launcher). Walkman widget recently was supported and I can add the widget even I use other launcher(this was not possible before in JB 4.1.2). Does anyone have any idea on this issue or is this a valid concern or not?
    Thank you!

    It's currently not possible to use our photos and videos widget on a 3:rd party launcher. We added this for Walkman with the latest update for the Walkman app but i don't know when/if it will be supported by Album.

  • Hello I have updated my phone to ios6 but after that I lost my contacts , photos , videos and many datas please help me

    I have upgraded to ios6 after which I lost my contact numbers please help

    I am furious and super sad. I spent the entire day trying to recover my data after it told me to update my phone. I did update it and I have lost everything. It went into recovery mode and I tried it all. I almost bought the software mentioned above but because I did not get it to work on neither PC and MAC in demo mode, I was certain it would not work in full mode. I am pretty sure Apple corrupted my system while updating it therefore none of these tricks did work for me. I am trully upset, I am on parental leave and I had all my beautiful photos, videos on there are all gone.
    Reading all day on forums, this issue is more than common. It is exceptional that nothing is done on the company side to prevent it.
    Super sad. But there are lots of third party software that have been developed to help this serious issue. Too bad none of them worked for me.
    iphone is the only phone that does not allow anyone to select the photos right from the drive and get them. it has to go through this annoying itunes process to sync (and it has to be the right associated machine, the right itunes, it is super slow, etc.), therefore it is very common for people to loose their data because they just dont have time to go through this long annoying process regularly.
